Language in Macedon Ranges
The languages spoken in homes across the area, beyond English.
English is the primary language for 90.9% of people in the Macedon Ranges. This is a very linguistically uniform area where only 4.3% of residents use another language at home, a figure that has stayed the same since 2011.
Languages at home
English and the largest community languages.
The proportion of people using another language is far below the Victorian figure of 27.6%. This is mirrored by the fact that only 0.3% of residents speak little or no English, which is among the lowest rates in the country.
